That's not what Subversion says:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_18/conf/context.xml
Someone has modified this file.

If you really are using
CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/[appname].xml, then I
wouldn't expect anything to be copied into CATALINA_BASE/webapps during
deployment. Instead, the WAR should be exploded into the
CATALINA_BASE/work directory. You should definitely delete that if you
intend to re-deploy your webapp.
When you re-deploy, you should either check
CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/[appname].xml or delete it
and update it from your canonical source
(COMPANY_NAME/APP_CONF/DIR/app_name.xml or was it
COMPANY_NAME/APP_CONF_DIR/conf/APP_NAME.xml or was it
COMPANY_NAME/APP_CONF_DIR/APP_NAME.xml... it wasn't at all clear from
your previous message).

It's actually illegal. I wish someone would apply a patch that would
refuse to deploy a context with the path specified in it. It's probably
too much of a pain to code it so that it knows when it's actually legal
(when it's in server.xml, which is not recommended).
